The supply chain quality inspector is responsible for introducing and maintaining the technical incoming of sections, components and buyer-furnished items such as seats and systems equipment. Goods shipped directly from suppliers will be the primary focus.

Successful candidates for the supply chain quality inspector will hold at least an associate's degree with a focus on quality inspection in structure manufacturing or electrical, mechanical and/or cabin installations and/or in industrial, mechanical or aerospace engineering or an equivalent combination of education and experience. They will also have at least five years of relevant experience, preferably in the quality inspection of A/C components, systems and equipment in an international aviation company.

Meanwhile, the final assembly line quality inspectors are responsible for the execution and confirmation of quality inspections in the production process, including structures, systems and cabins.

These positions require at least five years' experience as a quality inspector with an international aviation company, a high school diploma and valid A&P license through the Federal Aviation Administration.

The pay rate for the hourly final assembly line quality inspectors ranges from $20 to $30 based on skills, experience and education. Click here for the complete job posting.

Both the assembly line and supply chain inspector positions require at least nine months' training abroad.
